The authors evident enthusiasm for the subject is matched by their impressive erudition, as evidenced by the glowing reviews from The Spectator and the Financial Times. Homo Criminalis is a captivating, scary, and fun beach read of new crime literature that delves into the fascinating world of organized crime. It poses thought-provoking questions such as when does a bandit become a monarch, when does a gang become a government, and is organized crime at the heart of every modern state?
On a thrilling whistle-stop tour of how the world's criminal underbelly has shaped state-making, capitalism, globalization, and all forms of so-called legitimate power, Homo Criminalis shows the emergence of modern society through the evolution of the underworld and its crimes. From Chinese banditry and eighteenth-century English tea smuggling to today's cocaine submarines and the high-tech crimes of tomorrow, this book shows us how the world's dark underbelly shapes us, no matter how we try to outpace it.
Entertaining, engaging, and packed full of fascinating stories, Homo Criminalis is a book for those who want to see our grand story of progress through the surprising and subversive new lens of organized crime.
